Tired?

Anyone besides me tired? It's late, I should be sleeping. Instead I am sitting in bed, listening to Tom snore and being incredibly bored. I could be sleeping. I am tired enough, but I am reluctant to give up my alone time. Once I go to sleep, morning will come too fast. I have to be up at 6:30 as it is to get the girls ready and on the bus for school. They were off Monday and I thought I would go nuts having them all here!

I am deciding on what I want to get done tomorrow. I know what I should do, but what actually gets done is a completely different story! I am horrible that way. I procrasinate on everything. I keep telling myself I will get up and exercise, but I never get around to it. I don't know how I am going to lose the few lbs. I see hanging around if I don't pick up the pace a bit! I have homework that needs to be done, but am I doing it? Noooo... :) I have quit drinking cokes though so that's a plus! Tom had to go to the dentist Friday and we found out just how bad they are for our teeth so we haven't bought any since then. I have been wanting to quit for awhile because I know they help put on those unwanted lbs I don't want. I kept buying them for Tom though and it's too hard to quit with them right there in the fridge staring at me everytime I opened the door! I drink mainly koolaid now and I am sure it will be water when I run out of koolaid!

I am so bored...oh, well...I will let you all go back to what you were doing now. I am sure you have more important and fun things to do than read my blog! Why are you here anyway? I am going to see who is on PBS...and myspace...hope to see you there!

“I would give up everything for one moment with you; for one moment is better than a life time of never knowing you." ~Unknown~

Sitting here listening to my Zune I am feeling at peace with my life. I am listening to the first song Tom gave me on our first actual date. It's called: "Her Man" by Gary Allen.

I am surprised I can remember that night at all! I feel like it was so long ago, time seems to have flown by me, and I have forgotten so many other things over the years. He was upset because I refused to let him buy me anything when we ran into Wal-Mart to kill some time. After we left we drove around for a bit and pulled over at a gas station so he could get some cigarettes and when he came back out to the car he handed me a key chain and this song on a cassette tape.

I almost threw that keychain out a few years ago because it had broken. He took it from me, fixed it and now carries that key chain. I have no idea what happened to the tape.

That was in January of 1997. We got married in August of that year.

At the time,when he bought me the chain and tape, I didn't realize the significance of having him in my life. I knew he was important, but I didn't understand how important. I just knew that when I was with him I felt that everything was right in my world. I was at peace then, just as I am now. I am very thankful God brought him into my life. I don't know where I would be without him. We have our ups and downs and we stress about monetary stuff, but through it all God has provided so we know we just have to keep faith.

"Love is a noble act of self-giving, offering trust, faith, and loyalty. The more you love, the more you lose a part of yourself, yet you don't become less of who you are; you end up being complete with your loved ones." ~Irene~

"When you love, there's no such thing as loving a little, but loving all the way. Love may not ask you to give up your life, but it will require lots of sacrifices." ~Unknown~

"Sometimes what you want isn't always what you get, but in the end what you get is so much better than what you wanted." ~Unknown~

Blah

I have PMS...I don't think that requires an explination. I just feel like laying down somewhere and dieing, but the kids won't let me. :(
